I have a CW380 which has functioned without any type of malfunction. I am retired LE and have been shooting semi-automatics since 1970. This 380 has a slide that is very skinny and with my old hands I can not operate the slide by hand. I have learned that I can put the muzzle against something hard like my desk and push the slide back until I can lock the slide. Is there anything I can do to make this process easier??? I have two Kahr 9mm pistols and I can operate their slides with out any problem. I have thought about trading the CW380 for a different gun that has a slide that I can operate. But I like all my guns to function the same and have the same trigger pull. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
